Have you ever heard a song that is inspiringly beautiful?
If you have then what is it because I am in need of beautiful music..
Doesn't matter who it's by or where it's from, it can be pop, rock, punk, anything at all, just so long as you found it beautiful.

In my opinion, music from films is the most beautiful around because of how it is put across to us. Unlike music, you are seeing no images and the images often reflect emotion. You will find moments in films when the music plays on top of something else to show you more of an effect of that scene. Sometimes funny, at other times distressing.
If you look at things like One Night At McCools, that was used in a rather humerous way whilst things like Thirteen Days, Save the Last Dance, The Leggend of Bagger VAnce, Casion etc. all have a power and memorable effect from it.
Hate to turn the topic around, but you'll probably find that most soundtracks are actually the best at the end. Not sure why it is but when watching a great film, you're sometimes left speechless and unable to move, so that last thing you want is some awful soundtrack playing whilst the credits are.
Sorry for not really talking about the topics but if you're on about beautiful songs then it would have to be love songs really as they have meaning unlike Heavy Metal which consists of screaming about anything that springs to mind.

I am not a terribly big fan of Stereophonics, but "Handbags and Gladrags" just makes me think every time I listen to it. Here's the lyrics.
Handbags and Gladrags by Stereophonics
Ever seen a blind man
Cross the road
Try'na make the other side
Ever seen a young girl
Growing old
Try'na to make herself a bride
So what becomes of you
My love
When they have finally
Stripped you of
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad
Had to sweat to buy you
Once I was a young man
All I thought I had
To do was smile
You are still a young girl
And you bought
Everything in style
So once you think
You're in, you're out
'Cause you don't mean
A single thing without
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad
Had to sweat to buy you
Sing a song of six-pence
For your sake
And take a bottle full of rye
Four and twenty blackbirds
In a cake
And bake them all in a pie
They told me
You missed school today
So what I suggest you
Just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad
Had to sweat to buy you
They told me
You missed school today
So I suggest you
Just throw them all away
The handbags and the gladrags
That your poor old Granddad
Had to sweat to buy you

By beatiful do you mean a good song or a good slow one? A releaxing one?
There's so many thing that a 'beatiful song' could mean.

Yes, I know. By the way, I'm not a prat. I was actually surprised for some reason that anyone said a piece of music from a film. John Barry is one of the best all-time composers of film music, composing almost all of the Bond theme, among hundreds of other film themes. He's a true patron to films.

Oh, and so he was. Rod Stewart did the original of Handbags and Gladrags, and I thought SHEEPY was calling me a prat because he thought I didn't know it was by Rod Stewart, but he was actually shouting at Mouldy Cheese, who said it was by Mike + The Mechanics. So, this is all a big misunderstanding on my part. Sorry!
